Properly tightened bolts seem to be an issue at Acura. First the MDX was recalled for improperly tightened bolts on the drive shaft, and now the RLX is being recalled for loose rear-suspension bolts.

According to Honda, there are eight bolts that attach several rear-suspension components which are at risk of working themselves loose over time, and eventually falling out. If that happens, the rear suspension of the vehicle can move out of proper alignment which will affect the steering of the vehicle and can ultimately lead to a crash.

Acura will voluntarily recall 7,387 RLX vehicles from the 2014
model-year in the U.S. to replace rear suspension bolts that may not
have been tightened properly. During assembly, it is possible that one
or more of the eight bolts that attach several rear suspension
components were not tightened properly.

Unchallenged leadership is never good. Toyota hasn’t needed to put up a fight in the mid-size truck market for a very long time. At least not until now because for 2015, GM is releasing all-new versions of Colorado and Canyon.

One year ago we put eight compact crossovers in a battle royal to determine which high-riding hatchback is the best in the business. Focusing on comfort, efficiency, value and practicality, a surprise champion emerged; the Subaru Forester.
